Hi @Irussaa ,

 

If you want a DAX formula, you could try the following DAX:

Column =
"W" & WEEKNUM ( 'DateDim'[WeekEnding], 1 ) & " "
    & MONTH ( 'DateDim'[WeekEnding] ) & "/"
    & DAY ( 'DateDim'[WeekEnding] )

It works!  @v-eachen-msft 

 

But I have one more question, why is that first week ending in the beginning of the month (which is the first week in january) already generate WE2 not WE1?

Thank you

Hi @Irussaa ,

 

Replace WEEKNUM ( 'DateDim'[WeekEnding], 1 ) with WEEKNUM ( 'DateDim'[WeekEnding], 2 ). After my tests, it will work.

@v-eachen-msft I'm sorry can I ask one more question?

 

Why the WE data isn't arranged in the chart?

Thank you!

@Irussaa Please change your WE column "Sort By Column" to the WeekEndingNumber that needs to be derived from WeekEndingDate. (As you can't directly use the WeekEndingDate for Sort By Column, as WE is using that field)

Hi @Irussaa 

 

ColumnName = 

Text.Combine({[Week]," ",Number.ToText([MonthN]),"/", Number.ToText(Date.Day 
 (Date.EndOfWeek([date]))})

 

Tell me if this works, since I did not have your table, I did this free hand. This is in Power Query.
Let me know if you have any questions.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos 👍are nice too.

Hi @Nathaniel_C 

 

I try to apply 

ColumnName = 

Text.Combine({[Week]," ",Number.ToText([MonthN]),"/", Number.ToText(Date.Day 
 (Date.EndOfWeek([date]))})

 

Inside my data set:

 

WE = Text.Combine({[DayofWeek]," ",Number.ToText([MonthofYear]),"/", Number.ToText(DateDim[Day]
(Date.EndOfWeek([Date]))})

But its Error.
 
Can you explain to me what is 
[Week]
[MonthN]
Date.Day
(Date.EndOfWeek([date])

Hello @Irussaa ,
Here is a link to Power Query Power Query . It is the best place to add Calculated Columns.

However this is a way that you can do it in Power BI. 

WE= table[Week] && " " && table[MonthN] && "/" && Day(table[Date]+ 7-WEEKDAY(table[Date],1))

In your post you show a table with columns. I took the name of the columns from that picture. You will want to replace "table" in my formula with your table name.
